Rescuers can save more lives by coordinating their efforts when performing BLS for adults. The updated approach focuses on having multiple rescuers simultaneously perform chest compressions, manage the airway, deliver rescue breaths, and use an AED as a team. This choreographed method saves valuable seconds compared to one rescuer performing each task sequentially, as time lost to damage of the heart and brain is minimized when rescuers work together.
